hey you can surely go for wireless with your relaince bb.there is no need to login to router every time.It keeps you connected automatically so there is no need to logion again and again.simply need to configure the wireless once on your machine's and it will work.

hi Bluetooth and others,

I bought netgear wireless router (WGR614) yesterday and am trying to configure reliance broadnet through it. I read this entire post, but am still not able to succeed. In your last post you said that I have to copy my laptop's mac address onto router - Could you please elaborate on that?

Dude,there is no need to map the laptops mac onto router.
apart form that it is suggested that you use DHCP and select automatic ip detection for your WAN. if tht doesnt work revert back to me.

hey guys,
I just finished configuring my netgear wireless router for reliance broadnet connection. The DHCP thing didn't work, however, I had to choose ISP as Telstra Bigpond and then proceed with the settings. I am not sure whether it is safe to post the entire settings for a layman here or not ?? I tried hard but could not find any post on the net which can help a layman configure the net on the latest netgear router. So, should i post it here ?

I too faced a similar problem. Till 20/10/08 everything was fine. I have a linksys router which I use to connect my laptop & my iphone. On 21st both devices could not access the net. I checked by connecting the modem physically to my laptop it was working. When I reverted to the router, I noticed router had IP address 0.0.0.0.

Well the solution is to clone your laptops MAC address in your router. I did that and it works. Dont really know where/how to clone it in a D-link router though. You will have to figure that out by going into the router admin utilitiy.

I had read about this issue in other forums, but that was for Wimax. Obviously the same Reliance evil minds have now percolated to broadnet as well !

I spoke to CC and asked them - Their answer - We cannot help you since it is your router and Reliance does not provide help on routers !!! :-). Obviously they would not register my complaint (hence no reference no.) but promised me that he would escalate it offline and I would get a call from their tech centre. Of course that will never happen.

Stupid idiots.

cheers.

True, they have nothing but dumb answers.

My ADSL router works most of the time, but I run into this problem occasionally where the modem direct connects fine but not the router. The router just gets a 0.0.0.0

I did a little research and the MPOA link is down whenever this happens. Googling suggests this link is needed for a router to connect but not for a modem. I am guessing it is a temporary problem on Reliance servers that this link goes off. Always this issue is temporary, with the router getting back to life in a few hours. On one instance, the router worked when I did a reset of the router.

Customercare as usual shrugs off responsibility saying as long as the modem works they have nothing to do with it and you should contact the hardware vendor etc., but I did hear on interrogation of the tech guys there that this is a server issue. So it is not deliberate suppression but a server issue (Which they try to hush up) as I understand it.

I have written to the higher ups to confirm whether or not Reliance supports Wifi router and requested that they notify that clearly (on website etc.) if it does not.

HEY GUYS,

I finished configuring reliance broadnet for the netgear wireless router yesterday. However, am having an issue - If I logged in from laptop-1 and den later if the connection gets logged out due to inactivity. Then, i can only login back from Laptop-1, the only way I can login from laptop-2 is to properly logout from laptop-1. Is there any way around this ?? If in the worst case, if the laptop 1 is not scheduled to come back near the wireless network for next 3 days, what is the way out ?

@deep4u
How do you connect Laptop 1 to Reliance Broadnet?
Dialer ( WAN MINIPORT) "Bridged" OR
"Always On" ppp/PPPoE . This is preferred.
Mention modem make model supplied by Reliance .
Is it ZTE ZXDSL 831 AII ?

The Solution to all your problems is getting a static IP.

Have been using it since last one year on my Linksys WRT600N

Reliance does not allow PPPOE or Bridge mode. Only Dynamic IP works, given the non-standard authentication in a web page.

Map the MAC Address of Laptop that u use frequently into the router, that should solve ur problem.

deep4u · 06-21-09, 05:12 PM

and can you tell me as to how to do that ?

devilguy · 06-21-09, 05:14 PM

my dsl modem is UT 300 R2. I connect laptop1 to modem via a netgear wireless router using a direct connection - neither bridged or PPPoE. Reliance doesnt work with either of them.

About laptop1 being away from the network, i just meant that if the person who owns laptop1 is out of town for a few days.

Disconnect Netgear WIFI router.
From modem Ut300r2 Lan port to Laptop2 ethernet port.
Do you get connected to Internet and can surf ?

Repeat for Laptop 1.
If OK post ipconfig /all for both laptops.
(START RUN type cmd type ipconfig /all)

UT-300R2 ADSL MODEM MULTIUSER CONFIGURATION
